There are two interpretations of the world of today.
Either it is on fire or there is light ahead.
“If life were predictable,
so it would cease to be life
– and be without flavor”
*Eleanor Roosevelt – former US first lady*
Lonely hillside tree on tiny danish island of Samsø.
(the title is borrowed from a Aksel Sandemose book title)
Walk inspired by “Restlessjo” and her captivating “Monday walk” themes.
Straight coastlines, no the twisted are more exciting and longer too.
House for tourists, free to be alone – but on a tiny island people aren’t far away.
A cute little beach bird, maybe a beach boy too – don’t know.
Old equipment on a small former farm.
Field boulders used as base stones.
Ancient tomb place.
Even on a tiny island, neighbors can be on distance.
“No throne in the world can substitute a beach chair”
– or a control cabinet with a view in a small harbor.
Waves are life, but risk too.
The short future hides behind not next corner but next wave.
From the summer of 2019.
“You can’t stop the waves, but you can learn to surf”
*Nitya Prakash – indian book and film writer*
The color yellow is a special characteristic sign of the city of Skagen.
Located in the northernmost part of the danish region of Jutland.
With the waters of Kattegat, Skagerak and the North Sea on three sides.
Far to the west is Scotland situated
Slightly closer to the east Sweden and to the north Norway.
For centuries it has been a goal especially for painters
– the light is very special in the area of Skagen.
Inspired by this week theme “Yellow” in the “Friendly Friday”.
“Something to ponder about“
“Attitude is a little thing, that makes a big difference”
*Winston Churchill – british statesman*
The journey through life has not stopped yet, although travel is paused.
All walks must start somewhere, here the ‘toothless’ duckling started.
For good reasons, I’ve only taken a few of the photos myself, but they’re all mine.
Walk inspired by “Restlessjo” and her captivating “Monday walk” themes.
Grandfather shortened the saturday shopping because the grandson came to visit.
His dog rushed at him too, because it adored my mother.
Neighbors delivered delicious fresh asparagus,
because the neighbor’s son and daughter-in-law were visiting.
Grandpa’s old car was sadly worn out,
when I was old enough to drive a car myself.
My mother’s very best friend, she adored me – she was so sweet.
The boys of her own age, they were tired of me getting all the attention.
She later became a dentist, but at that time I had no teeth.
Grown up in a home that was always open to everyone – with serious intentions.
Met many different people on the way through – with overnights in the straw hall too.
Lots of stories, not all happy – sometimes there was a reason for their choices.
At that time I liked being in front of the cameras.
The house where it all started.
Lived in childhood several different places.
With a father who wasn’t in her majesty’s service,
but in his majesty service.
Because at that time so the queen happens to be a king”.
All of these guests one by one inspired a curiosity about knowing the entire world.
